How to Make Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter with an electric mixer on medium speed for 30 seconds.
- Add 1 cup packed brown sugar, ½ cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon ground cloves (optional).
- Beat until well combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well incorporated.
- Gradually add 3 cups all-purpose flour, beating with the mixer until just combined. Stir in the remaining 1 cup flour with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms.
- Stir in 3 cups rolled oats and 1 cup raisins (optional). Mix until evenly distributed.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
